More Than a Driving School
Our driving lessons and intensive courses are delivered using modern coaching and client centred learning techniques. This approach focuses on building confidence, understanding and decision making, rather than simply memorising test routes.
By tailoring instruction to each learner, we support steady progress and strong preparation for the practical driving test and real world driving beyond it.
Committed to High Professional Standards
At Driving Skills Academy, maintaining high standards is central to everything we do. Our instructors operate to recognised professional and ethical guidelines and commit to ongoing development to ensure learners receive safe, up to date and effective instruction.
ADI National Joint Council
We are members of the ADI National Joint Council, helping us stay informed of the latest developments and best practice within the driver training industry.
ADI Code of Practice
Our instructors have signed up to the DVSA voluntary Code of Practice, setting clear expectations around professional conduct, fair business practices and learner care.
Continuing Professional Development
Our instructors actively engage in continuing professional development, ensuring skills, knowledge and teaching methods remain current and effective.

We operate a quality assurance process to help maintain high teaching standards across our instructors. This includes regular reviews, feedback and ongoing support to ensure learners receive consistent, professional instruction.
Supporting Your Learning Every Step of the Way
Learners at Driving Skills Academy benefit from access to modern learning tools designed to support progress both in and out of the car.
You can track your driving lessons, progress and payments using a free app available on Apple and Android devices. Learners also receive free access to Theory Test support and Confident Driver resources to help build knowledge, confidence and understanding alongside practical lessons.
Our Commitment to Road Safety
Learning to drive is about more than passing a test. As part of our commitment to developing safer, more responsible drivers, we introduce learners to respected road safety initiatives including The Honest Truth.
The Honest Truth is a UK road safety campaign that uses real life stories and education to highlight the consequences of dangerous driving behaviours such as speeding, distraction and poor decision making.
By introducing these messages early in the learning process, we help learners develop safer attitudes and a stronger sense of responsibility behind the wheel.
